About Emojis
General questions about emojis
What are emojis?
Emojis are small digital images or icons used to express ideas, emotions, or objects in electronic communication. The word "emoji" comes from Japanese, combining "e" (picture) and "moji" (character). Unlike emoticons, which are created using keyboard symbols, emojis are actual pictures.
How many emojis are there?
As of Unicode 15.0 (released in 2022), there are over 3,600 emojis in the Unicode Standard. This number continues to grow as new emojis are added with each Unicode update.
Why do emojis look different on different devices?
While Unicode defines the code points for emojis, it doesn't specify how they should visually appear. Each platform (like Apple, Google, Microsoft, Samsung) creates its own emoji designs based on the Unicode descriptions. This is why the same emoji can look different depending on the device or platform you're using.

What are collections?
Collections are personalized groups of emojis that you can create and save for quick access. They're useful for organizing emojis you use frequently or for specific purposes. You can create collections like "Favorites," "Reactions," or "Work Appropriate" to suit your needs.
Are my collections saved if I close the browser?
Yes, your collections are saved in your browser's local storage, so they will persist even if you close the browser or restart your device. However, they are specific to the browser and device you're using. If you clear your browser data or use a different device, your collections won't be available.
